Table templates are a fast way to build a new table. The templates capture data for common business needs, and all the fields and data types are set up for you.

Click the
Create tab.

In the
Tables group, click
Table Templates, and then click the template you want to use.
You can use the template right away — just start entering data — or you can add, remove, or change the fields. Just make sure you save the table and give it a descriptive name. The practice session at the end of this course shows you how.
